Alternative singer/songwriter Montell Fish releases an intriguing single, โI Just Wanna Feel Your Love Again.โ
Aslow tempo complements a song that possesses a theme of being brokenhearted, right? Right. Alternative musician ๐ Montell Fish keeps the BPMs low on his single, ๐ต โI Just Wanna Feel Your Love Againโ.ย On this four-minute-long record, Fish handles the production.ย The backdrop is lovely, with lush strings featured in the intro, supplanted by guitar accompaniment.ย The first vocal section of โI Just Wanna Feel Your Love Againโ we hear is the chorus:
โI just wanna feel your love again
I just wanna feel your touch again
But, deep down, I know youโll leave me every time
But, if thatโs the price, I might just turn my eyesโ
Ultimately, the chorus is tender and beautiful. In the verse, Fish laments being without herโฆ This isย relatable, though nothing brand-new thematically. The verse is followed by bridge, where Fish sings in an undertone.ย The rub is that sometimes it sounds as if he mumbles or doesnโt properly annunciate.ย This seems to be intentional. Yes, the lyrics are important, but the vibe โ this feeling of desiring a lost love โ is also important to convey.ย Following the final chorus there is an outro that sounds raw and separates itself from everything else. Still, the outro is firmly entrenched in the narrative. All told, Montell Fish delivers an interesting track with ๐ต โI Just Wanna Feel Your Love Againโ.ย Again, the theme is tried-and-true, which is perfectly ok ๐.ย As for the overall product, Iโm not sold that it ultimately works perfectly, but the pros far outweigh the cons or flaws.
